RLL / MFM describes a certain harddisk drive types, which were used in the early PCs.
RLL=run length limited: is the "newer" encoding algorithm to store data, that enables faster access and increases also the capacity of the drive.
MFM=modified frequency modulation: was the "older" encoding scheme for harddisks but is still used for floppy disks.
